Praise for The Bomb That Never Was

 “Hitler has the bomb, and it's headed for the USA. This meticulously researched historical novel will have you asking, ‘What if?' This is an intelligent, fast-paced page-turner that will make you forget that you already know how it all turns out. Provocative, informative, and entertaining—I couldn't put it down.” —Joseph P. DeSario, author of Limbo and Sanctuary and coauthor of Crusade: Undercover Against the Mafia & KGB

“Authoritative and credible in its attention to detail, The Bomb That Never Was captures the spirit and temper of the WWII years and raises some deep philosophical questions about loyalty, treason, and commitment to country. A page-turner … tough to put down … a story well told.” —Robert L. Aaron, journalist and public relations executive

The Review:

As the years have passed I have found that I am drawn over and over again to history. Not my favorite subject at times, I always look for something that will give me a new take on something that happened. And that is exactly what The Bomb That Never Was by J.R. Shaw has done. 

While this book is a work of fiction, it is easy to see that the author has done plenty of research. What if Hitler had a bomb and it was headed for the US? How would things be different? Even if you have vast historical knowledge, this is the type of book that will have you captivated from the first page.
